This is a fresh install on my computer, just purchased a new copy of the game. Both with and without the patch I get a crash right after the splash screens before the game proper itself starts. The music begins to play, then windows tells me the program has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have tried every combination of options, shut off all background apps, tried using different modes to run the game (Win98 etc) and all fail at the same point. Interestingly, original KOTOR runs just fine on this computer, I recently got bitten by the bug to replay the two games.
